After industry speculation during the last 48 hours, Totem Onelove Group who run and operate the Stereosonic travelling festival have announced via a statement that the 2016 shows have been cancelled.
“Totem Onelove Group is currently working on bringing Stereosonic fans the best festival experience possible. As part of this, we are taking a hiatus during 2016. However, we will return in 2017, bigger and better. We will see you soon!”
The festival (held across two weekends in December, 2015) had been marred last year by two drug-overdose deaths (25-year-old pharmacist Sylvia Choi and 19-year-old Stefan Woodward), countless other overdoses and continued punter aggression.
